The Godzilla franchise is expanding its consumer product offerings in Japan through new collaborations. Dinosaur Base, a specialty retailer in Fukui Prefecture, has partnered with Toho to produce a series of Godzilla-themed randoseru (school backpacks) for students entering school in 2028. The collection includes three designs: a matte black Godzilla model, a gold King Ghidorah model, and a silver Mechagodzilla model. These bags feature specialized textures designed to mimic monster scales and armor, and they incorporate historical imagery of the original 1954 Godzilla. Each bag is priced at 93,500 yen, with pre-orders beginning in late January 2027.

In addition to the school bags, Bandai is set to release the “Nifolmation Godzilla Kaiju Gathering Sticker Wafer” on November 16. This product features 35 types of stickers depicting popular monsters from the film series, including rare foil-stamped versions, paired with cocoa cream flavored wafers.
